Chapter 848

Chapter 848 I heard that you want to be the mastermind behind the scenes? Ask for a monthly pass o('')o

A gust of wind passed through the corridor, gently caressing Belmod's exposed skin.

She shivered silently, and looked down at the shirt she tied a knot at the hem, revealing her navel. After a moment of silence, she silently reached out to untie the knot, and at the same time she gathered up the coat that was draped outside.

a little cold.

the other side.

Conan asked Jiang Xia a few more questions, but he couldn't get any useful information, only to see Jiang Xia getting more and more sleepy.

Looking at the neighbor who stayed up too long and seemed to be bewitched by beauty, unintentionally reasoning...

Conan was surprised to find that he had another chance to solve the puzzle before the answer was announced in the reference book.

"..." Good luck tonight... I'll call Hattori Heiji later.

Thinking of this, Conan didn't waste any more time.

His attention turned to Kogoro Mori and wanted to ask him about the situation.

Conan's thinking is the same as that of the police, and they all feel that acquaintances must be prioritized for investigation, especially Shimamura Sayuri who "forgot to close the window".

And under this premise, Mouri Kogoro, who was with Shimamura Sayuri tonight, undoubtedly holds the most valuable clues.

Conan walked over and tugged at the hem of Mouri Kogoro's clothes: "Uncle, Jiang Xia said that he has some questions to ask you..."

Kogoro Mori turned around when he heard the sound, looked at Conan, and then at Jiang Xia who was sitting on the sofa, his eyes suddenly stopped.

After a while, Mouri Kogoro walked towards Jiang Xia suspiciously and muttered, "...Why did this kid fall asleep at the crime scene?"

Conan was startled, then turned around.

I saw Jiang Xia, who was just a little sleepy just now, and I didn't know when he had completely closed his eyes, as peaceful as those classmates who surfed the Internet all night and then lied down to make up for sleep in English class.

Conan: "..."

He also followed Mouri Kogoro to the sofa.

I suddenly remembered something on the way and turned to look at the corridor.

I saw "Miss Zhuzhong" biting a cigarette in her mouth, staring at Jiang Xia through the rising smoke. Her eyes weren't friendly, but they didn't have any killing intent. They just seemed to have a bit of resentment and were very complicated... Conan watched for a long time, but couldn't analyze the more specific components, but he felt that he could summarize the situation in one sentence.

- There is a problem, and a big problem.

He suddenly became more alert.

"..." Thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xia seldom fell asleep at the crime scene - no matter from which point of view, Jiang Xia was definitely a detective who was responsible and loved his career. When he walked around the crime scene, although he didn't talk much, he was always energetic and his eyes were more radiant than usual... Only occasionally, when he encountered events related to car accidents and explosions, Jiang Xia would Slow down the process of solving cases. But at that time, he was usually leaning on somewhere to hang up, instead of sleeping like this now.

Mori Kogoro apparently thought the same thing.

As an adult, he is more powerful than Conan. Maori Kogoro walked to the sofa and shook Jiang Xia: "Wake up, get up and solve the case."

After shaking for a long time, Jiang Xia reluctantly gave a little reaction.

But he just raised his eyelids, and he fell asleep again before his eyes were fully opened.

...I can't wake up.

Mouri Kogoro withdrew his hand and touched the back of his head doubtfully: This junior is not very normal today, why is he sleeping like a sleeping pill... eh? !

Jiang Xia can also be regarded as an acquaintance around Maori Kogoro. When an acquaintance encounters an unexpected situation, Maori Kogoro concentrates and his reasoning ability awakens a little.

At the same time, the keyword "sleeping pills" made him suddenly think of something.

He turned his head suddenly and looked at Sayuri Shimamura, just in time to meet the sight of the other party who was evading panic- Sayuri Shimamura seemed to be very concerned about the movements of the detectives, and had been looking here just now.

"..." Kogoro Mori looked at her, and re-thought his experience tonight, and gradually realized something.

His face changed slightly, and he fell into contemplation for a short time.

Shimamura Sayuri was standing in the room with her hands folded. She tried to maintain a sad expression, but her heart had been extremely tense.

Just now, I found that Jiang Xia suddenly fell asleep, Shimamura Sayuri was puzzled, and suddenly felt a sense of happiness in her heart.

Although I don't know what happened, since Jiang Xia suddenly fell asleep like this, the horrible scenes like "Jiang Xia suddenly came over and whispered to her 'turn yourself in'" should not happen. ...

Thinking of this, Shimamura Sayuri couldn't help but raised her hand again and covered her face.

looked like she was covering up the tears, but in fact, there was a little smile on her lips unconsciously.

Roaming robbers and murderers are very difficult to catch. And when the incident happened, the windows of their apartment were not closed properly. It is very likely that some novice robbers had an impromptu intention and groped in and killed Hemei. This makes it more difficult for prisoners to lock down.

The police will keep chasing the phantom that does not exist, and she will happily live a life of innocence.

Shimamura Sayuri quickly adjusted her mood, sorted out her expression, and put down her hand.

Then suddenly the light dimmed.

Someone walked up to her.

She raised her head in surprise and found that it was Kogoro Mouri who came over.

When Shimamura Sayuri saw this person, she couldn't help but feel better. Although this uncle and Jiang Xia are both detectives and have a good relationship, they are very different in reasoning ability... Get up, if Mouri Kogoro took the initiative to send her to the door and gave her an alibi, things might not have gone so smoothly.

Thinking of this, Shimamura Sayuri was about to nod her head and say hello to this person who unconsciously became her accomplice.

However, before she could wait any longer, she saw Mouri Kogoro's complicated expression.

followed closely, and the silly detective in her eyes suddenly spoke up and said solemnly, "Miss Shimamura, surrender yourself."

Shimamura Sayuri's head buzzed.

Her first reaction was to turn to Jiang Xia, looking at the sleeping young detective, a few words suddenly popped into her mind - Tomeng.

"..." No no, how is that possible, it's ridiculous.

She forced a smile and looked at Kogoro Maori: "What are you talking about, aren't we together tonight? I don't have time to commit crimes at all..."

Mori Kogoro sighed and said in a low voice, "I got a hard candy in my mouth when I got off at Rice Flower Station. But I don't remember eating that candy before I fell asleep. And from Shibahama to Rice Krispies Station, with my mouth open to sleep, that wasn't enough time for the sugar to melt to the point where I got off the bus..."

He suddenly mentioned the candy, making Shimamura Sayuri confused for a while.

But when she heard the words behind her, her face changed suddenly.

Mouri Kogoro: "So I'm thinking that the time I spent on the loop line may be longer than I thought. For example, I took the station and took an extra lap... If so, I am in this building. When I meet you downstairs, it is no longer exactly eight o'clock, but nine o'clock when the crime happened."
